Of course, things change during a long season: opponents figure out how to play your team, which forces the manager to make changes. Say Chilwell comes back and then gets into some good form, and if he remains playing sterling on the right wing, that could work (Sterling defends well).

Judging from what i've seen, Poch wants at least 5 aerial dominate players on the pitch if available. Which makes sense as if we can do away with the individual errors, we will get more points as these bottom half clubs relying on shitehouse tactics are mitigated. I anticipate Nkunku and Jackson to alternate at CAM and ST dynamically. Sterling starts at LW with Mudryk as back up. The issue then is how to fit Palmer, Carney, and Gallagher when all fit. Does Poch continue with Gallagher? Not sure about you, but I particularly don't rate Chilwell that great of a LB. LWB sure, but LB, not for me.  Think this will be our XI with everyone fit. Sanchez James Disasi Badiashile Colwill Caicedo Enzo Palmer Nkunku Sterling Jackson  Broja, Gallagher, Mudryk, Madueke, Carney, Lavia, Lesley, Gusto, Cucurella, Chilwell, Silva, Chalobah, Petrovic Edited October 12, 2023 by MoroccanBlue nyikolajevics 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I mistyped it earlier, I meant Sterling on the LW like you said. I agree that this is likely the best starting XI perhaps Gallagher/Nkunku depending on opposition. I suspect he will play Silva a lot too, perhaps depending on the opposition esp because of the experience (& young squad). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was just trying to think what Poch will do tho. It's still a pretty young squad with only Sterling, 28, as the real senior experienced played of the bunch. James is 23, but definitely has experience. The others are new to the league and the rest of the squad has 19-22 yo players. Some of them physically look their age (Palmer). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vytis33 1,272 Posted December 27, 2023 Share Posted December 27, 2023 He’s gotta be one of the best signings of the Boehly era when you factor price paid vs performance.  Still only 20 years old too OneMoSalah, Fernando, Vesper and 1 other 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 (edited) Him & Connor best players last night. Reece is going to struggle to get back in if he cant get fit and this guy keeps playing like that. Aggressive when defending, showed real intent when he got forward. None of this going through the motions nonsense you get from watching Reece at times. Fully agree with above, one of the few good signings under Boehly. Edited December 28, 2023 by OneMoSalah DH1988 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
